Bryant totaled 12 points (4-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 25 minutes during Thursday's 93-66 Summer League loss to the Hawks.

The 2025 lottery pick shook off a scoreless first half to reach double figures, though he'll look to improve his efficiency after committing four turnovers. The Spurs used him at shooting guard Thursday, which put him out of his comfort zone, so that's something to watch going forward.

Veesaar recorded 14 points (5-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block in 19 minutes during Thursday's 93-66 Summer League win over San Antonio.

The rookie center provided an offensive spark off the bench, flashing his floor-spacing ability and interior efficiency while continuing to strengthen his case for a larger Summer League role. As for the upcoming regular season, Onyeka Okongwu, Jock Landale (ankle), Mouhamed Gueye and Zuby Ejiofor are projected to be ahead of him on the depth chart.

Ejiofor finished with 12 points (2-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in 24 minutes during Thursday's 93-66 Summer League win over the Spurs.

The rookie didn't shoot efficiently from the field but filled the box score with contributions on both ends, continuing to showcase the defensive versatility that made him a productive collegiate big man. However, he's got a lot of work to do to see rotation minutes early on in Atlanta.

Acuff recorded 19 points (6-20 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, seven assists, two steals and one block in 28 minutes during Thursday's 91-85 Summer League win over the Clippers.

The No. 7 overall pick showed flashes of the dynamic shot creation and playmaking that made him a lottery selection, overcoming an inefficient shooting night by setting up teammates and making an impact on both ends of the floor. With the Kings in the early stages of a rebuild, he's in a great spot for fantasy appeal right away.

Karaban went scoreless (0-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt) with two rebounds, one assist and one block in 24 minutes during Thursday's 91-85 Summer League win over the Clippers.

Although the former UConn standout missed all six of his field-goal attempts, he finished with a team-best plus-12 and continued to provide solid positional defense. He wasn't even supposed to be ready in time for this game due to an ankle sprain, so it's not worth overreacting to his scoreless outing.

Clifford supplied 13 points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, two steals and one block in 26 minutes during Thursday's 91-85 Summer League win over the Clippers.

Sacramento's first-round pick flashed the polished two-way game that made him one of the most NBA-ready prospects in the 2025 NBA Draft. With DeMar DeRozan moving on, Clifford has a much bigger path to minutes on the wings.

Cardwell registered 15 points (5-8 FG, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 25 minutes during Thursday's 91-85 Summer League win over the Clippers.

The Auburn product made an immediate impact around the rim, finishing efficiently while falling one rebound shy of a double-double. After a standout rookie campaign in 2025-26, Cardwell will make a serious push for a rotation role ahead of Opening Night, especially if the Kings move on from Domantas Sabonis.

Mogbo posted 12 points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in 24 minutes during Thursday's 91-85 Summer League win over the Clippers.

Mogbo is coming off two seasons in Toronto, during which he primarily featured for their G League affiliate. The Kings signed him to a two-way contract July 1, and he's expected to have a prominent role with the Stockton Kings early on.

Wagler logged seven points (1-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 27 minutes during Thursday's 91-85 Summer League loss to Sacramento.

The No. 5 overall pick couldn't get his jumper going but continued to receive plenty of on-ball opportunities as the Clippers prioritized his development. With the Clippers moving on from Kawhi Leonard, Wagler has the opportunity to start Opening Night next to Darius Garland.

Miller totaled 12 points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist and three blocks in 27 minutes during Thursday's 91-85 Summer League loss to Sacramento.

The rookie second-round forward showcased his intriguing two-way upside, finishing efficiently while swatting a game-high three shots. There is a lot of competition for minutes in the frontcourt in Los Angeles, but Miller certainly has the talent to carve out a role.
